Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Hardly on it's own.
A ton of money goes into telling Americans that they can't afford vacation or sick leave. Even as a ton more goes into telling us that AI will be replacing our jobs momentarily.
Which is inself so fucking absurd. Can you imagine spending money to convince other people to work harder? Like, as a concept to itself it's so absurd.
Yeah the billionaires are working overtime. Probably easy to do when you have more money than some countries.
edit: I don't mean they literally are working hard. I mean they stand against worker's rights.
They work "overtime" because they log every meal as working and having an idea at 2am, while trying to ignore the ghosts of hell screaming at them, demanding they repent, as overtime.
Well... someone on their payroll is working overtime
